Trapped with a Lawyer novel Chapter 225

Ella took off her gauze mask and smiled at her two children playing in the back seat.

"Mom, where are we going today?" Jane asked, taking out a toy from her bag.

"Wherever you want. Today is your day. Tell mom what you want, and I will get them for you, " Ella replied and glanced at Jane through the rear-view mirror.

"Yaay! Mom, are we going to the shopping mall? Can we go to the cinema too?" Jane excitedly exclaimed, while looking at Ella with begging eyes.

"What movie do you want to watch?" asked Ella.

"I want to watch the new Spiderman."

……

"Ok, Jerry, how about you?" Actually, it was needless to ask Jerry because he would do whatever Jane wanted to do, but he knew Ella would insist on a response.

As expected, Jerry responded, "Spiderman!"

Jerry had always spoiled his litter sister, and this time was no exception.

After shopping, Ella took the two kids to the cinema to watch the 3D movie.

Half an hour before the movie ended, Samuel called.

Ella told Jerry to look after Jane for a while, walked out of the cinema, and answered the phone. "I will get off work in half an hour. I'm thinking of taking you and Jerry for a meal, " said Samuel.

'After half an hour? Surely the movie would have been finished by then.

But Jane is with me.' thought Ella.

Before Ella even replied, Samuel continued, "I heard that you went to the cinema with Jerry and a little girl.

Did you take Jane with you?"

After hearing what the bodyguard had told him, he immediately thought of Jane.

Samuel's last question to Ella seemed to have scared her the most. 'How does he know where I am?' Ella wondered to herself.

"Jane? who is Jane?" said Ella in an agitated voice.

She had almost forgotten that Samuel had hired personal bodyguards for her.

"Ah? Am I wrong? I believe Jane was the pretty cute girl Jerry was with when he came to visit me in my office, was she not?" Samuel was extremely curious about who she had taken to see the movie with Jerry.

……

'When did Jerry go to Samuel's company with Jane without me knowing' Ella was clueless.

After a while, Ella had regained her composure, "Oh, that was Jerry's classmate. The girl's mother asked me to look after her daughter while she was busy taking care of some errands."

"Oh, I see. If that's the case, you can just bring her with you for dinner, "

As much as Ella wanted Jane to be there, she wasn't ready. Off the top of her head she said "No!...", for she was not mentally ready to reveal to him the secret she had kept to herself for years. "Jane's mother will come pick her up soon. "

Ella was so uneasy that she could not contain herself.

Her unusual behavior aroused Samuel's suspicion.

"Well then, just tell me when you have finished watching the movie, " concluded Samuel.

When Samuel hung up the phone, Ella was relieved. She willed herself to calm down before returning to the theatre hall.

Ella sat down and began thinking about how to tell Samuel about Jane.

Deep in thought, Samuel suddenly remembered something.

He recalled that Ella had asked him what he would do if he found out that she had lied to him again.

He hurriedly unlocked his phone and opened WeChat, scrolling through Ella's profile moments.
